Memos now prove that Bush not only planned to invade Iraq no matter what, but to have suggested putting a US spy plane in UN colors, hoping to get it shot down, just to provoke the mess we got into... and there are still sentient beings making apologies for this man?

Seriously. Where's the line? Never mind Guantanamo, torture, rendition, NSA spying, yellowcake, ignoring the briefing warning about Bin Laden, the misuse of classified info to attack opponents, the Katrina clusterf***, deficits of unprecedented proportion, scribbling notes in the margins of laws so the king can decide which parts he will and will obey -- never mind all that.

Clear and provable willingness to start a war on the basis of pure lies? That's not enough?
